I stayed home this morning due to rainy conditions and when Joyce asked if I was interested in an afternoon watch of course I said yes! We went to the Frontier Communications Tower first and found Beauty on the inside of the southeast cube looking well…Beautyful!

Yes even with bad lighting she looks great! We opted for going to the Brighton site(BS) after taking a quick look from the Broad St. bridge. CarolP was parked on the bridge when we arrived in the rain, prompting us to wave as we drove past her instead of stopping.  Arriving at BS Joyce spotted both Pigott and Dot.Ca(DC) on consecutive south side window ledges tucked in a corner.

They were napping and preening as Joyces’ dogs were getting impatient to go for a run, so we left Miss Pigott and DC with full crops planning to return.

Larry had come to BS as well and when the dogs were done with their run we joined him at the back of the building. While Joyce and I were gone Pigott had gone to the east end of the south side vent and DC remained on the window.

2 pigeons flew thru very non-chalantly and both Pigott and DC flew off after them. DC returned and landed on a southwest roof corner while Pigott did some flying in front of her handsome mate.

Larry was hungry so he left to go home leaving Joyce and I with these two love birds. It’s so obvious that DC likes Miss Pigott more than Beauty-they click better so to speak. I would love to see Beauty get another mate and leave Pigott and DC to themselves. What does the future hold for our Peregrine trio and let’s not forget to put KPT into the mix. I hope we don’t have another winter like last year as far as the drama goes. We’ll have to fasten our seat belts and hope for the best as we wait to see if one or both our tiercels migrate and leave the females on their own. Sound familiar!?!

Anyway, Joyce and I decided to call it a watch when it started raining harder and as always when out on a watch with Joyce I did lots of smiling! 🙂

No more pics today as it was a pretty short watch but I do have links for a couple videos below
